WXGM 99.1 FM Gloucester Radio Station

Gloucester Radio Station WXGM
Here is a link to the Gloucester Radio Station, WXGM FM 99.1. They have on line radio so you can listen right from your computer. The music is a mix of top 40 and everything from 70's through to today. Even though we like the radio station, we do not really care for the website. It contains very little information about the station and is top heavy on advertising. The site is geared more towards you buying services than anything else. We do not recommend you try listening from your computer as they want you to sign up for a service that you may never use. It's free on the radio, listen there instead.

Plenty of new Gloucester News RSS Feeds

You asked for it, so we have worked on clearing up the old feed we had for news about Gloucester and now have a nice list and cleaner look of RSS News feeds about and for Gloucester County. Your one stop information station on the web. Guess we need to figure out some way to pipe in the local radio stations as well. Since we brought it up, guess the next link needs to be about our local radio stations.

The Virginia Symphony, Yorktown


The Virginia Symphony held a concert over in Yorktown on August 30th, 2008. A very well done setup and well performed concert. Here is one of the clips we did. If you ever get a chance to see the Virginia Symphony, we recommend going. It was just a great night on the hill over looking the water towards Gloucester. Our thanks to the Virginia Symphony for allowing us to make this recording available to you.

The Ocean Buffet Restaurant



The Ocean Buffet Restaurant, located at 6693 Fox Center Parkway, right by Starbucks, next to Wal Mart, is a must visit place to eat. Service is top notch and the staff is really friendly, and most important of all, the food is fantastic.

We took the family to dinner there and were just delighted over the menu, very pleased with the service and we highly recommend this place. The picture slide show only gives you a small idea of the wonderful food. The dining area is very clean and the food is not made in mass quantities so you know it is always very fresh.
